Material examined.

1 ♂ 1 ♀ ( TRU - JS 0770–0771 ), China : • Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, Fangchenggang City, Shiwandashan National Nature Reserve , west border of Pinglong Station (21 ° 50.73 ' N, 107 ° 53.24 ' E, ca 430 m), 30. IV. 2024, A. L. He et al. leg GoogleMaps .

Diagnosis.

Siler hanoicus resembles that of S. cupreus in the general shape of copulatory organs but differs in: 1) embolus (E) curved (Fig. 25 B View Figure 25 ) vs straight ( Peng 2020: fig. 296 b); 2) retrolateral tibial apophysis ( RTA) curved ventrally in retrolateral view (Fig. 25 C View Figure 25 ), vs anteriorly extending before curved ventrally ( Peng 2020: fig. 296 b); 3) presence of a pair of atrial ridges (AR) (Fig. 25 D View Figure 25 ), vs absent ( Peng 2020: fig. 296 f).

Eye sizes and interdistances: AME 0.41, ALE 0.21, PLE 0.19, AERW 1.16, PERW 1.37, EFL 0.94. Legs: I 4.16 (1.35, 0.70, 0.95, 0.73, 0.43), II 3.23 (1.00, 0.50, 0.75, 0.63, 0.35), III 4.07 (1.13, 0.48, 1.18, 0.85, 0.43), IV (1.50, missing, missing, missing, missing).

Legs yellow except tibiae I dark, covered with dense, dark, ventral setae on patellae and tibiae I. Dorsum of abdomen dark, mingled with green, with irregular anterior scutum ~ 1 / 3 abdominal length; venter colored as dorsum.

Palp (Fig. 25 A – C View Figure 25 ): femur length / width ratio ca 2.5; patella ~ 1.2 × longer than wide in retrolateral view; tibia ~ as long as wide in retrolateral view; retrolateral tibial apophysis ( RTA) strongly sclerotized, curved ventrally to rather pointed tip in retrolateral view; cymbium pale yellow, ~ 1.6 × longer than wide; tegulum length / width ratio ca 1.53, with posteriorly extended posterior lobe ( PL) with blunt end, and sub-spherical retrolateral tegular bump (TB); embolus (E) originating from most anterior portion of tegulum, slightly curved, and with blunt end.

Female (Figs 25 D, E View Figure 25 , 26 C View Figure 26 ). Total length 5.14. Carapace 2.29 long, 1.67 wide. Abdomen 2.90 long, 1.81 wide.

Legs: I 4.61 (1.55, 0.68, 1.10, 0.83, 0.45), II 3.91 (1.25, 0.63, 0.88, 0.75, 0.40), III 4.64 (1.38, 0.63, 1.00, 1.13, 0.50), IV 6.18 (1.68, 0.80, 1.50, 1.70, 0.50). Carapace (Fig. 26 C View Figure 26 ) similar to that of male. Dorsum of abdomen (Fig. 26 C View Figure 26 ) with inconsecutive, anterior, orange, arc-shaped setal stripes followed by alternate pale and dark setal patches; venter dark.

Epigyne (Fig. 25 D, E View Figure 25 ) sub-triangular; atrium (At) anteriorly located, with arc-shaped lateral ridges (AR); copulatory openings (CO) small, partly visible; copulatory ducts ( CD) thick, posteriorly extended; spermathecae (S) touching each other, spherical.
